PhI(OAc)2-mediated aminoacyloxylation of β,γ-unsaturated hydrazones using Togni reagent II as an acyloxyl precursor

Photocatalytic Carbosulfonylation/Cyclization of N-Homoallyl and N-Allyl Aldehyde Hydrazones toward Sulfonylated Tetrahydropyridazines and Dihydropyrazoles

N'-Benzylidene-N-homoallylacetohydrazides were designed and synthesized as novel skeletons for the construction of functionalized tetrahydropyridazines. A series of aryl- and alkylsulfonylated tetrahydropyridazines were obtained in yields of up to 94% employing sulfonyl chlorides as the sulfonyl radical sources under visible-light irradiation. Besides, sulfonylated dihydropyrazoles were also produced from N-allyl-N'-benzylideneacetohydrazides. Mechanistic investigations indicated that both energy transfer and single electron transfer processes were involved in accomplishing the radical 6/5-endo-trig cyclization to the C═N bond.
